Audi-style LED lights '02 C239 Coupe

Thought I would share my newest (and only) mod to my '02 C230 Coupe... Audi-style LED lights. Wired them off the front side clearance lights... completely reversable... I'm please with how it turned out.

Ebay... they came from China, as I recall... 20" long flexible encased in silicone. Tucked in tightly between bumper cover & headlamp.

+1 But if I were to do something similar I would mimic the w204 DRL down under the fog lights. No offense intended but its like putting angel eyes on a Honda.

the "audi" style you wish for doesn't even look like that. They have bigger LED's and much less of them to cover the span of the headlight. Plus they are OEM on an audi.. sorry dude

not good...not good.....I agree with what jetta02awp recommends.......why would you do this when you can easily find the "L" shaped leds avaliable for the "LED" mod...........

One of my friends that has a w203 put one of those LED strips under the benz emblem that was in the middle of his grill (he had one of those grills that have the really big benz emblem in the middle). It actually came out really nice, you should try giving that a try. Or maybe LED fogs or something. I personally am not a fan of placing the LED strips were the OP did but at the end of the day its your car and the only person who need to like it is yourself

Also...

I've actually had several compliments on them, and I like the look... and I do like that it's easily reversible.

My second mod... put the '05, or 'facelift' taillights on my '02 Coupe this morning... it is amazing how much better they look then the stock originals. Found these brand new on eBay UK For a little over 100 dollars each... Shipping was not bad. Seems to be many more listings for them on UK eBay than US.
